Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bicycle frame and more particularly a so-called triangulated road bike frame comprising a seat tube, a horizontal tube and an oblique tube, and shock absorbing means integrated in said frame.
- the so-called road bicycles comprise a so-called rigid triangular frame consisting of a seat tube, an oblique tube assembled at the lower end of the seat tube and a horizontal tube of which the proximal and distal ends are assembled at the upper end of the saddle tube and respectively to a fork tube, the oblique tube being secured to said fork tube, a rear arm secured to the lower end of the seat tube in the vicinity of a bottom bracket, and stays whose ends are integral with the rear end of the rear arm and the seat tube respectively.
- These rigid frames of road bikes offer little shock absorbing capacity, the shocks due to road irregularities, such as bumps and holes, being damped only by the tires of the wheels.
- the frame includes a stay assembly defining a stay axis and including a spring assembly having a spring member (eg, a leaf spring) at an angle of at least 5 degrees to the stay axis.
- the spring element has a width that is at least 4 times greater than its thickness.
- the patent application also discloses a bicycle comprising a frame which comprises a seat tube and a guy assembly defining a stay axis.
- the shroud assembly comprises a spring element offset from the stay axis and non-parallel to the stay axis.
- the stay assembly further comprises a stay tube, and the spring member comprises a rear portion attached to the stay tube.
- the spring member may also include a front portion attached to a seat tube of the bicycle frame.
- One of the aims of the invention is therefore to overcome these disadvantages by providing a road bike frame of simple and inexpensive design, providing shock absorption while providing high rigidity of the frame.
- a bicycle frame consisting of at least one seat tube, an oblique tube assembled at the lower end of the seat tube and a horizontal tube whose proximal ends. and distal are assembled at the upper end of the saddle tube and respectively to a fork tube, the oblique tube being secured to said fork tube, a rear arm secured to the lower end of the seat tube near a bottom bracket , and stays whose ends are integral with the rear end of the rear arm and the seat tube respectively; said bicycle frame is remarkable in that the proximal end of the horizontal tube comprises two segments, a first upper segment secured to the upper end of the seat tube and a lower segment bearing on at least one damping element obtained in a material resilient and secured to the saddle tube.
- the upper segment of the horizontal tube provides sufficient rigidity to the frame while allowing a slight bending and that the lower segment allows shock damping by cooperating with the resilient damping element.
- the damping element consists of a piece inserted in a tube portion secured to the seat tube and extending to the right of the lower segment of the horizontal tube.
- Said tube portion receiving the damping element and the lower segment of the horizontal tube have a circular section.
- said damping element consists of a cylindrical body inserted in the tube portion secured to the seat tube and an annular collar projecting from said tube portion, the free end of the lower segment of the horizontal tube being supported on said flange.
- the damping element is obtained in an elastomer such as synthetic or natural rubber.
- the upper segment of the horizontal tube has a flattened section providing good deformation while ensuring a maintenance of rigidity at the connection with the seat tube.
- the frame according to the invention comprises a casing covering the tube portion, the damping element inserted in said tube portion, and the lower segment of the horizontal tube.
- the housing is obtained in a flexible polymeric material such as polyethylene for example.
- the shrouds are secured to the seat tube at the same height as the tube portion in which is inserted the damping element .
- the bicycle frame 1 consists in the usual manner of a seat tube 2, extending generally, of an oblique tube 3 assembled at the lower end of the seat tube 2, at the level of a box of crankset 4, and a horizontal tube 5 whose proximal and distal ends are joined to the upper end of the saddle tube 2 and respectively to a fork tube 6, the oblique tube 3 being secured to said fork tube 6, a rear arm 7 secured to the lower end of the seat tube 2 at the bottom bracket 4, and shrouds 8 whose ends are integral with the rear end of the rear arm 7 and the seat tube respectively 2.
- the fork tube 6 receives a fork bearing at its lower end the axis of the hub of the front wheel, said fork and the front wheel not being represented on the figure 1 .
- a handlebar is conventionally secured to the distal end of a bracket integral with the upper end of the fork to ensure the direction of the bike, the handlebar and the stem are also not shown.
- the seat tube 2 is adapted to receive a seat post, not shown on the figure 1 , comprising at its upper end a saddle on which the cyclist takes position.
- the different saddle tubes 2, oblique 3, horizontal 5 and fork 6 are secured to each other preferably by welding;
- said tubes may be assembled by any suitable means well known to those skilled in the art such as by gluing and / or interlocking for example without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the proximal end of the horizontal tube that is to say the end of the horizontal tube 5 integral with the seat tube 2 comprises two segments 5a and 5b, a first upper segment 5a secured to the upper end of the seat tube 2 and a second lower segment 5b bearing on a damping element 9 obtained in a resilient material integral with the seat tube 2.
- Said damping element 9 consists of a piece inserted in a tube portion 10 secured to the seat tube 2 and extending to the right of the lower segment 5b of the horizontal tube 5.
- Said tube portion 10 is preferably welded to the upper end of the seat tube;
- said portion of tube 10 can be assembled to the seat tube 2 by any appropriate means such as by gluing and / or interlocking for example or the tube portion 10 can be obtained in one piece with the seat tube 2 without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the upper segment of the horizontal tube provides sufficient rigidity to the frame while allowing a slight bending and that the lower segment allows shock damping by cooperating with the resilient damping element.
- said tube portion 10 receiving the damping element 9 and the lower segment 5b of the horizontal tube 5 have a substantially circular section.
- said damping element 9 consists of a cylindrical body 9a, the outer diameter of which is slightly smaller than the internal diameter of the tube portion 10, inserted in the tube portion 10 integral with the seat tube 2 and a annular flange 9b projecting from said tube portion 10, the free end of the lower segment 5b of the horizontal tube 5 bearing on said flange 9b.
- portion of the tube 10 and the lower segment 5b of the horizontal tube 5 may have a section of any shape, the body 9a and the collar 9b of the damping element 9 then having a section of the same shape without depart from the scope of the invention.
- Said damping member is obtained from an elastic polymer, preferably an elastomer such as natural rubber or cis 1,4-polyisoprene (NR), synthetic rubber or synthetic polyisoprene (IR), polybutadiene (BR) or copolymer styrene-butadiene (SBR) for example.
- an elastomer such as natural rubber or cis 1,4-polyisoprene (NR), synthetic rubber or synthetic polyisoprene (IR), polybutadiene (BR) or copolymer styrene-butadiene (SBR) for example.
- the body 9a of the damping element 9 may be hollow or solid without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the upper segment 5a of the horizontal tube 5 has a flattened section providing good deformation of the upper segment 5a while maintaining a rigidity at the connection of said upper segment 5a with the seat tube 2
- flattened tube is meant a tube having a height less than the width of the tube.
- the frame according to the invention comprises a housing 11 covering the tube portion 10, the damping element 9 inserted into said tube portion 10, and the lower segment 5b of the horizontal tube 5.
- said housing is obtained in a flexible polymeric material such as polyethylene for example.
- the stays 8 are preferably secured to the seat tube 2 at the same height as the tube portion 10 in which is inserted the damping element 9.
- damping element 9 can be positioned in a housing made in the seat tube 2 without leaving it.
- damping element may be substituted by a plurality of damping elements without departing from the scope of the invention.
